What is scripting in EQ? You make the computer auto run towards the mob or something?

Please break this down barney-style for me.

Basically yes. Once the mob spawns your character instantly starts running. It's used to try and give you a small edge in the race because it's automated rather than taking the extra few seconds it would take a human's eyes to process the track list and then start running.

The accidental thing Vanquish proved here was that they had been scripting as well. Which was why Riot scripted here: to show that the only way the race is neck and neck is if Vanquish's racer was also scripting.
